A rewarding read, of a what is clearly a rewarding journey.
As a teacher once said to me once, the key three keys to progress are practice, practice, and practice.
This was in the context of Chinese internal martial arts, which have rather specific goals, sensitivity and power for fighting, but seems applicable to the journey you describe.
On a further note, the internal arts have principles, borrowed from Taoism, that also cross over into longevity and spirituality.
"内外相合" (nèi wài xiāng hé) - "the internal and external are in harmony."
"内练一口气,外练筋骨皮" (nèi liàn yī kǒu qì, wài liàn jīn gǔ pí) - "internally, cultivate the breath; externally, train the muscles, tendons, and skin."
The path of self cultivation is indeed fascinating.
I am sure you are doing a great service by dragging all this endless loop of shaming into the light. Great job,
Thanks Wes. It needed to happen. Wouldn’t leave me alone… I guess I always find my way back to the important stuff
“Wouldn’t leave me alone” just about sums up almost every creative thing, huh?
You’re right about that for sure
I love this Faye xxx
♥️♥️♥️
